• Draw lewis dot structures for an atom of each of following elements:
marin [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

Lewis dot structures represent the symbol of an atom we're looking at and the number of valence electrons it has. This number is represented by the sum of dots around the symbol.

  • Potassium is in group 1A, this means it only has one valence electron, so we draw K with one dot in its Lewis diagram;
  • Argon is in group 8A, this means it has eight valence electrons, so we draw Ar with 8 dots around it in its Lewis diagram;
  • Silicon is in group 4A, this means it has four valence electrons, so we draw Si with 4 dots around it in its Lewis diagram;
  • Arsenic is in group 5A, this means it has five valence electrons, so we draw As with 5 dots around it in its Lewis diagram.

Those are represented in the image attached below:

No amino acid molecule by itself can speed up or catalyze reactions between other molecules; however, when amino acids are joine
Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

That the enzyme is a protein

Explanation:

Remember the proteins are groups of thousands of amino acids, by their owns, since they are very small units, they can not act as a catalyst.

But as a polymer, the protein enzyme, have different shape, size and physical and chemical properties than a single monomer.

Remember also the proteins to be active, they need certain number of amino acids join together to form a specific shape that is going to match with another molecule to speed the chemical reaction and act as an enzyme.

A container is filled with Neon gas. It has a volume of 1.5L and a pressure of 101.3 kPa. If the volume of the container is incr
Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

37.98 kPa.

Explanation:

  • We can use the general law of ideal gas: PV = nRT.

where, P is the pressure of the gas in atm.

V is the volume of the gas in L.

n is the no. of moles of the gas in mol.

R  is the general gas constant,

T is the temperature of the gas in K.

  • If n and T are constant, and have different values of P and V:

<em>(P₁V₁) = (P₂V₂)</em>

<em></em>

  • Knowing that:

P₁ = 101.3 kPa, V₁ = 1.5 L,

P₂ = ??? kPa, V₂ = 4.0 L.

  • Applying in the above equation

<em>(P₁V₁) = (P₂V₂)</em>

<em></em>

<em>∴ P₂ = (P₁V₁)/V₂</em> = (101.3 kPa)(1.5 L)/(4.0 L) = <em>37.98 kPa.</em>
